I know it’s last-minute, but I got you a Valentine’s Day gift.
(You knew I wouldn’t forget about you, right?)…
Enjoy this naturally caffeine-free Spiced Chamomile Tea Latte Recipe as a relaxing hot beverage any time of day; it’s as easy to make as steeping tea! If you’re trying to reduce your coffee intake or just want a delicious new hot beverage to try, I highly recommend this Spiced Chamomile Tea Latte Recipe. This latte features the crisp, fruity aroma of chamomile mellowed out with a subtle nuttiness from almond milk, warm spices, complex vanilla, and a hint of sweetness. It’s the perfect drink to relax with any time of day!...
This vegan Cilantro Pesto Recipe is fresh and bright-flavored with cilantro and nutty with pistachios, and is a delicious change from a traditional pesto. Oh, pesto. It’s one of those things that I truly love, but forget about until it’s all I can think about. (The cravings are real once basil is in season.) If I played it right, I’d spend the final days of summer every year putting the last of the fresh basil to good use and freezing it so I could enjoy it throughout the rest of the year. And have you ever tried cilantro pesto? It’s bright and fresh with a […]...
Black Forest Chia Pudding Nice Cream Recipe (Healthy Banana Ice Cream) is fruit-based (cherries and banana), contains healthy fat (chia seeds), and is equally satisfying for breakfast or dessert. I remember the first time I tried my hand at making banana ice cream (aka nice cream). It was circa 2010 and I was living in Buffalo craving a soft serve from Kone King something fierce. A friend told me about nice cream and I decided to try it. Back then, I had no idea just how versatile nice cream is, and that it can be made into things like this Black Forest Chia Pudding Nice Cream […]...
Packed full of nutrition, this vegan Pina Colada Green Smoothie recipe will make you think you’re on a beach in paradise! It’s a great way to get your vegetables in, but all you’ll taste is sweet pineapple and coconut. The first time I had a real Pina Colada was on a beach in Thailand. It was served in a coconut shell, and I still remember how refreshing it was as I lay in the sun with my feet in the sand reading a book. For me, a Pina Colada represents vacation! And Green Smoothies represent busy days when I want to get a lot of […]...
This Sweet and Spicy Buffalo Buttered Pecans recipe combines two classic snacking favorites; it’s perfect for munching anytime! I’m the type of eater who would much rather nibble on five small meals throughout the day than sit down to three big ones. I like grazing; tasting a little of this and a bit of that, and also, I don’t enjoy eating until I actually feel full (I much prefer to stop when I’m just satisfied), the way that can happen if you’re eating fewer (but larger) meals. Truthfully, I’m usually just feeling snacky....
Vegan Herbed Black Rice, Black Lentils, and Black Quinoa Pilaf Salad Bowls with Blackberries is a nutritious summer meal. One of my favorite summer memories growing up is of my sister and I picking wild berries at my grandparents’ house and eating them as fast as we could pick. Mom would always send us out with a few pint-sized containers, stained various shades of purple and red inside with remnants of previous summer’s berries, but we were hard-pressed to fill them up. It doesn’t get any better than eating freshly picked fruit that’s still warm from the sun....
Indian-Spiced Chickpea Curry (Chana Masala) is an uncomplicated, unpretentious, and completely satisfying vegan dish of chickpeas cooked until meltingly tender in an aromatic tomato-based sauce redolent with garlic, ginger, and exotic spices. I still remember the first Indian meal I ever had. I was a freshman at college and I was a little skeptical, mostly because I thought I didn’t like spicy food. But honestly, back then I didn’t really understand the difference between a well-spiced dish vs a spicy-hot dish. I was about to get schooled....
Paleo Hello Dollies Cookie Bars are a healthier take on a classic favorite cookie bar without sacrificing flavor! For most of us, holiday time means baking, and we usually have a few specific cookie recipes that get made several times each season. Surprisingly, I don’t do a ton of holiday baking, but my mom’s favorites to make on rotation (when she has the time for holiday baking!) are frosted and decorated Christmas Cutouts, Butterballs (also called Russian Tea Cakes, Mexican Wedding Cakes, and Snowball Cookies), and Schnecken (which are similar to Rugelach, but are made with sour cream instead of cream cheese). And then every […]...
Winter Citrus Salad with Pomegranate and Fennel is pretty and festive, and full of antioxidants! I love December so much; the chilly days and first snowfalls (depending on where you live, that is), comfort food dinners, and anticipation of the upcoming holidays. But one thing I really start to miss this time of year is sunlight; with sunset at 4:50PM here on the Winter Solstice, you can understand why, right? So I get my sunshine fix in other ways; namely, citrus!...
